Ewww, no. The programmer should have run their unit tests, maybe even told you about them. You should be testing for edge cases not covered by the unit tests at a minimum and replicating the unit tests if they don’t appear to be very thorough.

Yeah, people are frequently terrible at understanding context so it shouldn’t be surprising that a computer has difficulty too.

There are actually a lot of specialized applications of neural network based computing being used for science, but they don’t get the flashy headlines because they are a tool. Those projects use it to find things to focus on narrowing down what people should look into first for confirmation, like ancient settlement patterns, stars that might have planets, and other things where patterns exist but are hard to see.

Some examples are listed here at a high level. In all cases the ai leads to humans confirming and then working from there, it isn’t the end result on its own. https://medium.com/@jeyadev_needhi/uncovering-the-past-how-ai-is-transforming-archaeology-38ded420896d

It is hard because they chose to make it hard by trying to do far too many things at the same time and sell it as a complete product.

Yes, the tradeoff between constrained randomization and accurately vomiting back the information it was fed is going to be difficult as long as it it designed to be interacted with as if it was a human who can know the difference.

It could be handled by having clearly defined ways of conveying whether the user wants factual or randomized output, but that would shatter the veneer of being intelligent.

This is because AI is not aware of context due to not being intelligent.

What is called creative is really just randomization within the constraints of the design. That reduces accuracy, because of the randomization. If the ‘creativity’ is reduced, it becomes more accurate because it is no longer adding changes.

Using words like creativity, self sabotage, hallucinations, etc. all make it seem like AI is far more advanced than it actually is.

Design requirements are what it should do, not how it does it.

What, like some kind of design requirements?

Heresy!

Do streamers call themselves influencers?

So they spent advertising money on freelance shills. Ok, that is just another form of advertising like paying an advertising company to do advertising.

It is not technically entrapment because they aren’t police, but they are cosplaying as cops so the label gets the point across.

What we see in this article appears to abandon that sort of rigor to manufacture more opportunities to confront someone.

Aka entrapment.

Somebody should tell society their laws need to catch up with that decision!

startup nobody has heard of

There, now that sentence isn’t racist because that sounds like a scam without any additional details.

But it is a startup you’ve probably never encountered, which is saying more about them not being known outside of their home country which is a bit different.

Said the shitty autocomplete pretending to be a doctor.

They did a bang up job on publicity already.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Ow, my sides.

Fascism and other authoritarian systems aren’t a measuring contest though. Just because somewhere else has been doing it longer or is more effectively doesn’t mean somewhere else isn’t doing or trying to do the same thing.

A benevolent dictatorship is still a dictatorship for example. While the Republicans have enacted widespread voter suppression that didn’t guarantee winning an election, that doesn’t mean they aren’t working on the steps to guarantee it in the next election. Fascism doesn’t require complete and total success to be fascism.

US is not yet fascist in the formal definition of the term, thing can and likely will get worse.

Yes it is. We are already at the dictatorial stage in practice with the legislature and SCOTUS complying voluntarily by not enacting checks and balances. Everything else, like the nationalism, demonizing groups, and the rest are in full swing. Don’t need death camps to be fascist, although we are well on our way down that road.

What criteria isn’t being met yet in your opinion?

Ubicent?

Tensoft?

Does it finally know what happened in 1989 in Tienanmen square?
